Microsoft is making Xbox controller collectors out of a lot of people.
In previous years, anti-Xbox fanboys would mock the brand for the sheer volume of custom controllers Microsoft was putting out into the ether, saying things like, "Xbox has more controllers than games." In 2025, nobody can really deny that Xbox now has an absolute mountain of games, with an annual output that is practically burying almost every other publisher out there. Xbox is now publishing more games on PlayStation than Sony itself, in a huge turn around. But, its custom Xbox controller operation has continued unabated. It's almost as if people who make controllers aren't the same people who make games, right?
